TEDxCranbrookSchools

TEDx was created in the spirit of TED’s mission, “ideas worth spreading.” It supports independent organizers who want to create a TED-like event in their own community. TED conferences bring together audiences and communities to share ideas and stories usually in the form of short, powerful talks.

TEDxCranbrookSchools focused on motivating and inspiring students with stories of ingenuity and creativity, the theme being Innovation: Ideas to Impact. The event explored the bold ideas that invite us to think, live, and work outside of the box. A diverse group of speakers and performers shared their talents, insights, and expertise. The line-up included Cranbrook Schools’ students, alums, faculty, and parents.

The sessions and events included mini talks for grades PK-1, TED-style talks for grades 2-6, Innovation Alley (interactive booths run by students), and TED-style talks for grades 7-12.

The event was shared with the global community though live-streaming webcast.
